It sounds like it could be decent, the areas they have lightened aren't
the most critical and Greek style yogurt is pretty good.

I found a recipe for Guilt-Free Tiramisu, that only has
120 calories per serving, compared to the 510 calories for the classic
version. One recipe is for 12 servings and is 4 g. fat per serving. Do
you think it sounds like it might be good? Sure sounds easy enough!

anxious to try it.

Rocco DiSpirito's Tiramisu (lighten-up version)

2-1/2 cups (20 oz.) nonfat Greek yogurt
3 oz. (about 1/3 cup) mascarpone cheese
2 tbsp. dry Marsala wine
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp. granulated Splenda
20 ladyfingers
1-1/3 cup cold brewed espresso
2 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder

I thought the same thing too, so hope it will taste close to the 'real'
thing! I've never had Green yogurt, so will have to check that out.
